I do agree with warrtalon,you can use the sharepoint designer workflows, and it is very simple. the action is send an email. but if you are using VS it can be implemented in the codes. I prefer not to use codes in the basic actions in the form so I can not help you in this way.

wish you success

It seems you prefer to complicate things by using code and VS to make your forms and workflows. You can easily send the form within an email or sends a reference to the form in an automated email by using basic InfoPath settings and/or SharePoint Designer. I would imagine that anything you can do in those two tools can be done in VS. Is the problem that you don't know where to find those options? I don't use any code in any of my forms or workflows in order to keep them simple but powerful, so I don't know how to do it in VS, but I do know it's very easy to do it without code.

Hi

You can use a data connection that will submit data. in the second level of wizard, you should choose send as an email- message. In the next step of the wizard you can define all the property of email. you can define how it email the form; as an attachment or just the data. another way is to chang the submit option of the form.

hope to be useful dear sgandhi.

Hi Firouz,

Now any suggestions?

How to send the Infopath Form as an email?

Hi,

Below is my scenario what I have done and what I need to do.

1. I have created a custom workflow in SharePoint (Visual Studio).

2. As soon as the user fills the infopath form and clicks submit the workflow will activate.

3. I am able to send the mail to all the people in the field (approver).

4. What i want now is that the Form itself should go to all the approvers (in rendered mode) as an email.

Kindly let me know what is the way out?

Thanks
